PURDUE COURSES (1)

In the spring of 2009, Dr. Gray will be offering courses that take advantage of Berlin's unique location.

One course, available only to Purdue participants, will be History 492G:

"Communism in Germany: The East German Dictatorship, 1945-1990"

How and why did Germany divide in two during the Cold War? What was life like behind the Berlin Wall? Why exactly did the regime collapse so suddenly in 1989-90? This course will feature a variety of readings and visits to distinctive Berlin neighborhoods.
